If you have, or can borrow, a multimeter, here's how to test a power supply:

Testing PSU voltages

Or alternatively you can buy a proper PSU tester, they don't cost much:

I looked at the connector:
I is female, and needs three prongs. It has two wires connected to it, one red, one black. It says P8 on it.

It is an Astec atx202-3545 200 watt power supply ($79).

Currently I am on my way to get a mulitmeter so I can check to make sure it really is the PSU.

I already tried telling my wife it was dead, and she didn't buy it. I asked her if she would believe me if I put it down by the road. She said to hush up and fix it. <sigh>
